Clap Your Hands Say Yeah

"Telling the Truth and Going Away" (Video)

If the Colin Hanks-vehicle The Great Buck Howard wasn't such a bomb, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah could have had a breakout moment. See, the band, who play themselves in the film, played some songs during the film and pop up with a new track ("Telling the Truth and Going Away") during the end credits. Normally, you have to pay to have that kind of exposure, but here they are, in a film no one cares about. Tough break.

 

Clap Your Hands Say Yeah are reportedly working on new music. [Stereogum]

Tom Arnold's name being attached to the project should've thrown up flags...

So sad that this band had to be the first victim of the Internet hype cycle. That first album was pretty damn good despite it all.
